Google Faces Record EU Antitrust Fine

• redm 9y ago
  I'm torn because as a consumer (and a corporate consumer), I love to use Google products, they are great. Working within Googles systems (search, ads, publishing, etc) though has been frustrating at best, ruinious at worst. I doubt this fine will change Google in any meaninful way though, it will take more such as a top down attitude change or serious anti-trust calls.

  And will be promptly appealed. Intel has yet to pay a dime of its 2009 fine.

  Before hacker news disble my account, I would like to say that Google, facebook and twitter are one of the worst web sandbox jails. If you dare to say anything out of mainstream opinions your account is very fast disabled and everything lost. People please avoid these corporations
